Orthid / Spiriferid brachiopods @Tidgy's Dad?

Bottom right looks spiriferidic - the rest look very much like orthids - do you have any further information on where it was found? Such as what woods!

Come to the spring that is The Fossil Forum, where the stream of warmth and knowledge never runs dry.

Nice chunk of fossiliferous matrix, lots of brachiopods as mentioned.  What county in Mississippi is it from, maybe then we could narrow down the age possibilities?

I agree with Isaac.

Orthids and spiriferids are likely, though there might be a strophomenid or two in there as well.
